doing that positive role model thing

[He's sitting in the library, in that little corner that he's set up as a kind of classroom. There are a number of books stacked on the table, some simple math problems on the chalkboard, and he's sitting and grading a workbook with a red pen. Maybe he should take a break eventually, but right now, he's dealing with multiplication.]

I really need to get those times tables...



[OOC: Feel free to interrupt! I forget whoall Ri promised to teach (besides his Little Brother).]

Ninja are quiet. Which means it's good for practice! And I was gonna keep bein' quiet, but I wanted to know what you were doing.

*socute*

Well... that sounds alright then. And you can see what I'm doing.

*waves at the chalkboard*

[gonnabeninja.livejournal.com]

Looks like when Merlin's trying to make me learn stuff.

*snorts*

It's math, Gale. I teach some of the kids here.

[gonnabeninja.livejournal.com]

[makes a face.]

Why would you wanna do that?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*reaches over and pokes your nose*

So that they're not stupid when they grow up.

[ducks behind the table again, making more of a face.]

*outright laughs*

[pops back up, holding a finger to her lips.]

You're supposed to be quiet.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Oh, right. Thanks for reminding me.

[gonnabeninja.livejournal.com]

[peers at the stuff on the table, reaching for one of the books-]

*pretends not to notice as he grades workbooks! you're a very sneaky ninja!*

[gonnabeninja.livejournal.com]

[pulls it off, plopping down under the table to see what's in it.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*it's an age-appropriate book to help you learn to read! with pictures even*

[gonnabeninja.livejournal.com]

[hey, she can totally already read! mostly.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*you can enjoy those alphabet adventures then*

[gonnabeninja.livejournal.com]

[at least she's being quiet now.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*indeed you are! and you're learning something so it's a win-win situation*

[gonnabeninja.livejournal.com]

[she doesn't really mind learning, for all that she complains about it. mostly because her dad spoils her rotten when she does well. >>;]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*well you should learn more then so you'll get super spoiled!*

[gonnabeninja.livejournal.com]

[but her dad's not here to spoil her.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*maybe he'll show up, or you can surprise him when you go home*

[gonnabeninja.livejournal.com]

[maybe... eventually finishes the book and slides it back onto the table.]

That was boring.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*gives you a look, already sliding another book towards you*

Was it too easy? Or do you just wanna read something else?

[gonnabeninja.livejournal.com]

It was boring.

[okay so Merlin kind of sort of uses magic a lot to keep her interest.]
